Hi again,

+

You can add saints by going to the page for the date, for example [[January 7]]. This will show up automatically on the front page when it's time comes due. Please note that right now, OrthodoxWiki is using the dates for the Revised Julian (NEW) Calendar, and some adjustment may be required. Please also check to see if there is variation in the celebration in the different local traditions. If there is, please note anything interesting on the discussion page attached to the date. Thanks for your help! I'm glad to see some Bulgarian contributions here!

Thank you but I meant to create on the front page a category for Bulgarian saints. How to? --[[User:Marzata|Marzata]] 19:16, January 7, 2006 (CST)

:Currently I don't know that we have any pages of Bulgarian saints. If you would like to start a page for one, please, go ahead! (See [[Help:How to create a new page]] or ask a [[Special:Listusers/sysop|sysop]] if you need help.) Add '''<nowiki>[[Category:Bulgarian Saints]]</nowiki>''' at the end of the article, and once we have a couple of those pages, we can add a link to the category to the main page. {{User:Magda/sig}} 19:49, January 7, 2006 (CST)

Sorry but a spammer created an account to place false information by a false Fr John on peoples pages. I am sorry if the messages offended you but I am sure the real Father John would prefer to have you here.

Welcome to OrthodoxWiki!

Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Please note that OrthodoxWiki is always in development, so not everything works quite right yet. You can help, though!

OrthodoxWiki is a community-edited encyclopedia of Orthodox Christianity. Articles are created and edited by our members, and so everything that we do here is subject to review and revision. The result is a true consensus product, with every interested editor contributing his own knowledge and writing skills. As such, when you feel that criticism of an article is warranted, we encourage you to join in and fix it! Don't worry about breaking anything or doing something wrong—the other editors here are happy to jump in and help you learn.

Also please note that other editors will assume that you have read the Style Manual (our official editing guidelines). If you're wondering why an edit was reverted, an article renamed, or any other unexpected changes were made by another editor, check there.

Please also take a few moments to edit your user page by clicking on your name here, so that we can know a bit about you: User:Marzata. Feel free also to add your picture to the OrthodoxWiki:User gallery.

If you are uploading images, be sure you're doing so legally and according to OrthodoxWiki policy. Failure to abide by policy may result in your images getting deleted without warning.

If you would like to experiment with the wiki, please feel free to do so in the Sandbox.

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and other discussion pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please sign your comments on Talk pages, so everyone will easily be able to see who left them.

You'll have to verify your email address before editing any pages. This helps us prevent spam. Don't worry, your email won't be viewable to anyone but the sysops. We respect your privacy.
